4.0

Even though this is part of a series or this ain't the first book of Indira. I didn't have any trouble getting into the story. The protagonist and antagonist concept is something I'm into especially the Hero and Anti-Hero. I liked the pacing and the plot it was highly entertaining and interesting.

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Thanks to NetGalley & Crown Books for Young Readers for the early copy in exchange for an honest review. Sadly, I could not keep reading past 20%.

This is the third in a chapter book series, Indira has saved Imagination twice and is now on a sweet, sweet chill vacation. Until destiny comes a'knocking with a new adventure for her.

I was able to follow along despite not having read the first two books, but I couldn't stand Indira as a protagonist and the other two guys fighting for her affections didn't help either. I am not a fan of love triangles...at all. It didn't help when Indira complained about love triangles but still enabled the guys to be annoying and compete with each other... Ugh. I hope it gets better later but I just didn't want to deal with it.

I do really find the book super creative with how meta it is and all the creative locations, the love triangle was just a huge turn-off for me.
